Love the Trumpian golden calf @savedemocracy123.bsky.social
MOST HUMANS ARE SIMPLE PEOPLE, without "deep thought" or contemplation; thus, easily made to believe that which soothes their fears; which they're pumped full of by the demagogue, who tells them that ONLY HE CAN FIX IT. Out of blind idolatry, selfishness, manufactured fear/hate/otherness, THEY OBEY.

Epstein, blah, blah, blah. I'll believe they are actually releasing the Epstein files when I see them @andykoesy.bsky.social
Everyone knows they released those unredacted Epstein Files with victims names so they can say they "need more time" to redact and release more right? It was to "prove" their point that releasing the files doesn't protect the victims. And everyone is falling for it because of they are.

Oh, it's not just Ukraine @honorable-steve.bsky.social. He wants to hand Taiwan to Xi. Then Putin and Xi might let him claim all of North and South America unopposed...
No one should be surprised Trump wants to hand over Ukraine. He intended to from day one. He hates Zelensky because he is everything Trump is not. That and his quest for world domination that is.

Sorry @meidastouch.com, did you say 'could' or 'should' Pete be charged with murder?

It is absolutely out of choice. The wealthy and rich corporations keep their wages low to make sure they have a work force willing to work for any pay, any hours, under any conditions @thetnholler.bsky.social.

They create and maintain poverty in America because it is good for their bottom line.
GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”

Wanting to address this isn’t radical.

NOT wanting to is.

@chriscubas.bsky.social, several offerings on PBS are very similar like the Marlow Murder Club, Miss Scarlett and the Duke, Professor T, Patience, etc.
Thursday Murder Club is the kind of movie that I liked just fine but would also watch five more of today.

It is time to reign in CEO pay AND to relieve poverty in America @rbreich.bsky.social. It is time for a Federal Jobs Program...
you know what I'm talking about.
What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Don't fall for it. Trump has been waiting for an excuse for a military dictatorship.

It took only a few hours for President Donald Trump to turn what he called “an act of evil, and an act of terror” into a full-blown argument for an even more intense crackdown on immigration.

I have never made a living from the degree I got in liberal arts @amerliberal.bsky.social but I wouldn't trade my education for 500 pounds of gold.

What I learned... about everything is invaluable.
TRAGIC ‼️

First, American College Education got downgraded to purely a job-preparation role.

Then, people recognized that colleges weren't cost-effective for job preparation.

Trade schools are crucial, but colleges aren't effective trade schools.

Colleges are essential for VERY different reasons👇

Knowing what we know now, the creep factor is high on this one.

Epstein’s Lolita Express took its last flight in 2016 and sat abandoned at Georgia’s Brunswick Airport when photographed in 2020. This is the same jet that’s believed to have carried his trafficking victims & long list of secret VIPs.

Communities need used-book shops.

As the trends in our world are increasingly standardized and entrenched by "predictive" technologies that stifle innovation and reduce human actions into economic categories...

We need a full range of possibilities for readers and communities to explore and share.

I love the analogy. More people need to see this.
Just to understand the concept of a trillion.

And to serve MEN only.

I read it in college and over the years have seen it several times. Godot is pretty impressive @halfsoullessb.bsky.social. Thanks for sharing.
Sooo, I just saw Waiting for Godot for the first time...

(I've read it before but reading plays is just not it.)

...and I gotta say, I think I'm glad it's been now and not before. I'm definitely at an age where it just hit something deeply buried.

There was no "Emergency" situation with crime in DC. This stunt got a 20 year old young woman killed.

TRUMP'S BS CLAIMS via African nations Nigeria, RSA - that Whites are being murdered/oppressed by Blacks, and "Christians" by Muslims - is just another way to further DIVIDE Blacks from Whites, Christians from Muslims; so to create fear/division like all Fascists since Hitler use to RADICALIZE SHEEP!
